Ferdinand Beyer - Recreations No. 2 - Rondeau Valse sur un motif de Labitzky

Measures 1-20 begin with repeated lower-register notes and chords before the waltz melody enters in measure 5. Slurred descending phrases and dotted notes move above alternating bass notes and chord pairs in 3/8. Rising figures carry the melody into the upper register before it descends again.

Measures 21-36 present accented paired-note phrases over the same bass-and-chord accompaniment. Short slurred replies alternate with rising phrases and broader upper intervals.

Measures 37-53 expand the upper line into flowing sixteenth-note figures. Rising and falling runs reach progressively higher registers above the continuing waltz accompaniment, then descend to a brief pause.

Measures 54-69 return to the accented paired-note material. Slurred replies and rising phrases build into a fuller chord before a new flowing figure begins.

Measures 70-94 develop short chromatic turns and longer descending runs above bass notes and repeated chords. The melody reaches the high register, while brief passages in measures 86-87 and 90-91 place running figures in both parts.

Measures 95-106 close with repeated lower chords beneath short upper figures and descending phrases. Separate chord attacks and rests lead to the final held chord.
